Pre- mier Khrushchev heads it. This appeared to mark com- pletion of Khrushchev's design tor centralizing economic gui- uance which he announced at a meeting of the Communist ' party's central committee last November. The news agency Tass said the supreme council will out- rank all other economic bodies and work directly under the council of ministers.

Premier Robichaud, whose Liberal party holds 31 of the legislature's 52 seats, accused the Conservatives of sacrificing the "economic and human bet- terment of the people to their own selfish, partisan aims."

Kierans Takes ]-Man Crusade To Quebec City By THE CANADIAN PRESS One of the chief protagonists in the April 8 federal election campaign is not a professional politician but the 49-year-old president of the Montreal and Canadian Stock Exchanges, Eric Kierans. Mr. Kierans has a simple platform: Fight Social Credit. He continued his one-man crusade Tuesday by calling a press conference at Quebec City and reiterating that Social Credit monetary policies would bring financial and economic chaos to Canada. It was the same assertion which earlier had produced heated blasts at Mr. Kierans from both Social Credit Leader dissolution from Lieutenant- Governor J. Leonard O'Brien. The election will come two weeks after the federal election. The Consefvatives are the lone opposition in the New Bruns- wick House. They hold 21 seats. Mr. Robichaud's announce- ment drew cheers and desk- thumping from both Liberal and Conservative members and dropped like a bombshell in the middle of the hottest debate in the four-week session. ALLEGE WRONGDOING The Progressive Conservative charge of an apparent scandal was made by Opposition Leader C. B. Sherwood. He spoke dur- ing the day on his motion for an inquiry into transac'ions be- 'HOODLUM EMPIRE Reds Say US. MOSCOW--The Soviet Union charged today that three United States warships fired dummy shells at a Russian fishing ves- sel last Friday in international waters about 70 miles east of Norfolk, Virginia. ? A protest to Washington as- serted two cruisers and a de- stroyer fired on the refrigerator trawler in "an act of sheer wantonness which could have grave consequences." "The U.S.S.R. government re- gards this shelling as a gross violation of generally accepted international law standards and of the principles of freedom of mavigation in the open sea,"' an announcement by the Soviet news agency Tass declared. "In all, four shots were fired, endangering the trawler and her crew." Tass made no mention of dummy, or non-explosive shells. But Moscow radio referred to the shells as dummies after first reports of the protest left confusion as to whether the Russians claimed "shrapnel" or "dummy" shells had been fired because of the similarity of the two words in Russian. "According to information re- ceived, two American cruisers of the Boston class and one de- stroyer of the Franks class fired on the Soviet fishing traw- ler - refrigerator OS-RTR 9007 engaged in fighing ih the open 'Fired On Ship 12:50 p.m., having approached to within one kilometre of the ship, they again fired two shrapnel shells, which landed 60 metres from the trawler.

"The Soviet government ex- presses its protest to the gov- ernment of the United States against the , rovocative actions of the United States warships and expects that those respon- sible will be punished and that necessary measures will be taken to prevent the repetition of similar actions." 3-Year Driver's Licence System TORONTO (CP)--Ontario will introduce a new system of three-year driver's licences at | | | | | HAL C.

In Moscow, the Communist party-newspaper Pravda said four ships carrying troops had sailed and a fifth was loading. It said the fourth, the 11,030- ton Black Sea cruise ship Gru- zia (Georgia), left Sunday carrying specialists who had been training Cubans in "powerful, up - to . date Soviet military techniques."

LESS THAN IN 1962 On other electoral fronts, there were these developments: 1. Prime Minister - Diefen- baker told a rally in St. Eu- stache, Que., that Canada's eco- nomic growth has been "'tre- mendous," and repeated earlier charges that the Liberals preach doom and gloom. This is the first time any U.S. experts in Washington estimated there were 17,500 So- viet military personnel in Cuba when the withdrawals began. This was 5,000 fewer than be- lieved stationed there at the height of the Cuban crisis last October. President Kennedy told his press conference March 6 he was not satisfied with the with- drawal rate, but this apparently has been stepped up. State Secretary Dean Rusk said Tuesday the U.S. will con- tinue to press for more troop withdrawals. He said a "com- plete report" will not be issued until after the middle of the month. 2. Liberal Leader Pearson pledged a study-in-depth of Canada's bicultural partnership if his party is returned to of- fice. The study, he told a meet- ing in Sherbrooke,, Que., would go much deeper than an ordi- nary royal commission inquiry. 3.

This was 4,000 more than the mid-January total. The state- ment described this as "no ap- preciable change' in a period when, in previous years, un- employment has tended to rise. The jobless total was 38,000 less than the 583,000 unem- ployed in February last year. LOUIS J. ROBICHAUD Seeds Of OAS Planted In Indochina Paddies PARIS (AP) -- The terrorist Secret Army of France is a product of humiliation, frustra- tion and defeat. Its seeds were sown in the tice paddies of Indochina, where the little brown men of the Communist Viet Minh tri- umphed. It was nurtured in the humiliating disaster of the Suez veture. It flowered bloodily in the soil of Algeria. These items of history are re- sponsible, too, for attracting to its ranks names once venerable in the proud military history of France. These men believe that they are the patriots and Presi- dent de Gaulle the traitor. For them, Algeria was the last straw. History had passed| them by, but in their fanatic de- termination they wanted to make it stand still. CITY EMERGENCY PHONE NUMBERS POLICE 725-1133 FIRE DEPT. 725-6574 HOSPITAL 723-2211 De Gaulle, with his eye sharply upon the march of events, realized the hard fact of Algerian independence and said so. The men who created the Secret Army heard him with astonishment and rage. So, in April 1961, the Secret Army became an organization with a name and an aim. It was in that month that Gen. Raoul Salan, France's most decorated soldier, led the disastrous putsch of the gener. als in Algiers which crumpled in four days. Air Force Gen. Maurice Challe quickly gave himself up. On May 6, Gen. Andre Zeller surrendered. Sa- lan and Gen. Edmond Jouhaud fled Algiers. From then until independence came to Algeria the Secret Army and its killers swaggered bloodily through that land. The independence of Algeria forced a change in their stra. tegy. So did the arrests of Sa- lan and Jouhaud. Headquarters were set up elsewhere. It has been rumored that they have administrative cells in Belgium, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, | Spain and-in. France. Ce ee ee Spain is cleaning them out. Belgium swooped down on a handful of plotters some time ago. One by one the Secret' Army leaders are being picked off. Gen. Paul Gardy, the last Se- cret Army high officer, is still a fugitive. Tough, wry Col. Yves Godard; former ' intelli- gence chief of Algiers, has not been heard of for months. Some say he is dead. The mystery man is Jacques Soustelle, brilliant former Gaul. list minister. His name has al- most dropped from the news but he may well be helping to direct activities from' some nearby 'country. Despite the announced pro- gram to remove de Gaulle from office, there has been no ex- planation of what the political aims would be if this ever were achieved. This lack of objective would indicate that the plottings spring from savage vengeance, immediately born of the loss of velop Canada's resources.
